It is a common misperception that Bitcoin miners determine the shape of the blockchain. So common, in fact, that I had an academic colleague fall into the same trap, where he thought miners could arbitrarily decide to mint 1 million coins for themselves.

Quick, go tell Cornell their CS Dept. has a shark jumper among the faculty!  I'm sure they will care about your opinion.
